Guys, u served my father in the seymour duncan forum, I am inlcuding vital information to the survival of my bass in this post.
Please help me you are my only hope!
So my jazz bass ha s problem , the A strings sounds completely different from the others:
it is clerly noticeable:
-a drop in volume
- a drop in tone quality;
- a change in EQ of the string: looks like the A string has a mid boosted EQ in front , bass and treble greatly reduced.
the sensation is also that there is a kind of "odd" vibration that accompanies the A string. Is like a metallic vibrating sound. Other strings on the other hand, sound fantastic, open, resonant and full.
Before your answer, let me tell you the check i tried: truss rod for buzzing, fret level, bridge mounting + bridge parts mounting, eLectronics mounting and ground soldering.
I unmounted the tuning keys, the nut, re-polished the frets, changed strings, tightened strap locks.
I tried to dampen every exposed part of the string, behind the nut and at the bridge, I checked the nut slot,
Nothing.
I am about to burn my bass
please help!
